I wrote a longer post but I lost it, so here's the links:
LMMS ("Compatible with many standards such as SoundFont2, VST(i), LADSPA, GUS Patches, and MIDI")
http://lmms.sourceforge.net/
Ardour (A DAW, but maybe useful)
http://ardour.org/
Rosegarden (Best sequencer, with Lilypad notation support, has actual printed literature you can buy)
http://www.rosegardenmusic.com...
Audacity (PCM swiss army knife
http://audacity.sourceforge.ne...
The Cloudsto MK802IV LE, £80 ARM PC-onna-stick for doing music production on (Toys!!! *8D)

Who needs a Mac or a PC when you can run it all on the CPU your phone uses?
Not tried it myself but for £80, I need to get one and have a go.
+1 for Lilypond and I believe it's plugged into Rosegarden.
Yes, well, when all of the parties are basically the same and voter apathy is almost total what do you expect?
People in power want to stay in power.
Our system evolves people engineered to keep it.
Here's some more useful information from the TFA that I never knew and is interesting:
"What it means in ‘layman’s’ term is that if I am distributing software which has code from various developers I don’t really have any right to defend the project in case of any conflict. The code authors own the copyright thus only he/she can engage. What [Contributor License Agreements] do is grant me, the distributor, rights of that code so I can defend it without having each code writer to intervene. It becomes easier if a projects has hundreds of contributors. So in case of FSF or Apache the primary goal is ‘defense’ of the project."
So I guess this is necessary otherwise anyone could just take the name, logo and source code and make "My New Ubuntu 20.54" and there is nothing Canonical could do about it without getting written permission from every single developer with at least one line of code in the Ubuntu and upstream source base.
I recommend Plex (I know I know, I read the question)
I have an Ubuntu 12.04 box running that.
Don't generally have any problems with it.
I did have an MKV problem where some encoding option caused it to barf but that was with DLNA clients and the transcoder.
And it does have the advantage that you can get paid support for it at a very reasonable price.
The MKV files that are missing, are they missing on the PMS or just missing in the client?
And is the client DLNA or the native Plex client?
Also, if you have a Samsung smart device you can install the native plex client on there.
I have also had success with the following servers:
miniDLNA (only used for music on an RPi on a boat though)
Serviio (superior DLNA transcoding)
XBMCs built in server (seems to work well)
XBMC has a DLNA server switch you can turn on.
Seemed to work pretty well.
Agreed.
Wireless is for things that move about.
Wired is for things that don't move.
I'm looking at LightwaveRF and OpenHAB.
Affordable and hackable if that's what you're looking for.

Whoops, that don't work no more:
It is, at least, original.
Tried listening to it recently, it's getting a bit ear bleeding awful.
I liked it when it had some semblance of dub still in it:

"Anyone who uses Steam's Big Picture Mode is already intimately acquainted with SteamOS, as they're very similar. SteamOS looks and acts like Big Picture Mode, except it's the basis for the entire hardware system. It's controller-friendly and easy to navigate. The same Steam splash page washes across the screen when it launches, and the same tile-based layout of games and the Steam store are visible at launch. As promised, the OS is built on Linux (not based on Ubuntu, we're told, but entirely custom), though you'd never know it as the only interactive layer is all Steam.
That means it also has the limitations of Steam: SteamOS is not the replacement for Windows 8 you've been waiting for. Beyond basics like browsing the web, there's little in the way of standard OS functions."

Awful.
*brushes up CV*
More and more the evidence points to pack up, ship out and let rich corps fight over me.
Roll on ARM Radeon SoCs!
Please? It would make an awesome desktop PC.
Doesn't everybody with that class of media library just use their DLNA server of choice or XBMC or something now?
I use Plex, it indexes a bajillion tracks and I just choose what I want to listen to through Bubble on my phone and fling it at the player attached to a sound system
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
